Rhys and Wendy Dale, Lorna Dale with Monty & Delvin McBurrows

Lorna is employed by Sylvanian Child Services as a local liaison. When the SCS official Tiberius Rivers had a case in Mellowdene he formed an attachment with the village. He thought it was the sort of place in which children would settle, so they bought a house where Lorna would look after those children. When she has no official wards to care for, she tries to help by looking after village children when that would help parents in a fix. For example, when the McBurrows moles were having  temporary problem changing accommodation,  Delvin and Monty McBurrows stayed with her.

Some might consider this unusual but this is not the place to discuss the various attributes of Sylvanian ageing. Suffice to say that Sylvanians have different physical stages in their lives. This seems more pronounced with Sylvanian birds - one need only look at the Websters in Mellowdene - adults that continue to be diminutive in size.

When it became evident that Bisto Wildwood's methods were well-suited to the county, Bobby was happy to adopt the same techniques. He has effectively taken over the liaison role with other police areas, freeing the Sheriff from this administrative role - which suits Bisto!

The Treefellow owl family (9)

Aristotle and Arabella Treefellow are long-standing semi-residents of Mellowdene. They have a small home in a copse of trees within the village, but their family home is within the woodlands across the river. 

They have two sets of triplets: Winky, Blinky and Grumpy are one. The others are Fussy, Sniffy and Grizzly. Together, these six small owls assist their parents in their calling for knowledge and understanding.

Winky (orange jerkin) is able to see the absurd possibilities in a potential situation. His pale eyes almost light up with his ideas.

Blinky (yellow jerkin) is sometimes able to make weird connections, thinking laterally, but that requires him to take brief naps.

Grumpy (red jerkin) is able to see the down side of any situation, which, given the upbeat nature of Sylvanians, is a unique skill. It does give the impression that he is indeed grumpy but this isn't really the case.

 

Fussy (blue jerkin) is a stickler for accuracy.

Sniffy (pale blue jerkin) is eager to find solutions.

Grizzly (green jerkin) is particularly empathetic, and he is almost tearful with joy or sadness. Thankfully the latter has no effect on his psyche.

Xenophon Treefellow is another owl of note. It is unknown how closely he is related to Aristotle, if at all.

Postman Samuel Stamp lives here. His chosen rooms are near the entrance of the apartment complex in order that he minimises the disturbance to other residents when he has to work early.

Gilda is house-mother of Minestrone House, but also works as an auxilliary nurse at the cottage hospital.

Members of Captain Seadog's "motley crew" - Beaky Webster, Oscar Marmalade, Twitch Hazelwood and Murky Waters - sometimes stay here when they are not living with their own families.

Cheshire & Gilda, Beaky, Ashley and Samuel

Stella and Belle Chocolate share an apartment with Tegan Golightly. One of the reasons they have chosen to live there is the availability of a soundproof music room, so Belle and Tegan don't have to hold back when practising their violin and cello playing. Stella's boyfriend William Cinnamon periodically takes a room at Minestrone House too.
